Students entering Seventh Grade for the fall of 2011 will use Accelerated Reader

to complete their summer reading enrichment.  The goal is to provide our students with the opportunity to practice and improve their core reading skills using the most innovative tools available.

for instructions on logging into Accelerated Reader, or select from the side menu under Site Instructions.

After each book is read, students will need to come to the IHM Computer Lab to take the online quiz.  This will take about 10 to 20 minutes.
